Giorgia Renosto is a bilingual Italian-French jazz singer and Voice Over Music Director b whose musical identity reflects her dual heritage. She blends the warmth and lyricism of Italian tradition with the elegance and nuance of French musical sensibility, crafting a sound that feels both timeless and cosmopolitan.

She earned a scholarship and moved to Boston to study at the Berklee College of Music, where she graduated in Jazz Performance and Improvisation.

Giorgia’s artistry embodies a meeting point of cultures. Throughout her career, she has embraced diverse musical traditions—performing in Italian, English, Portuguese, Spanish, and French—and drawing inspiration from jazz, Brazilian rhythms, French chanson, and Italian classics. Her music carries the emotional depth and melodic grace of Italian tradition, intertwined with the refined subtlety and expressive sophistication of the French musical spirit. The result is a voice that is both intimate and cosmopolitan, rooted in heritage yet fluent in the universal language of jazz and song.

With a career spanning 20 years and several continents, Giorgia has established herself as a leading voice in music dubbing and vocal production. Following a decade of leadership with the award-winning ensemble Women of the World, she has performed at prestigious venues including Carnegie Hall, Blue Note NYC, and Boston’s Symphony Hall, while touring alongside legendary artists such as Bobby McFerrin and Nona Hendryx. Today, she directs high-stakes sessions for major networks including HBO Max and Paramount, where her specialized skill set in lyric adaptation and ensemble direction makes her a sought-after professional for global media projects.

Angelo Della Valle is an Italian guitarist and composer based in Los Angeles. After moving to the U.S. to attend Berklee College of Music, his musical voice has been shaped by years of performing, collaborating, and living between cultures.

His music blends song-driven writing with a strong improvisational core, drawing influence from The Beatles, Bill Evans, Wayne Krantz, U2, and The Verve. At the heart of his work is storytelling—compositions inspired by growing up in Italy, friendships that change or fade, love, and the experience of building a life far from home.

Angelo leads the Ngio Lee Quartet, a project centered on original music paired with reimagined pop songs woven naturally into the set, creating a live experience that feels intimate, spontaneous, and adaptable to each space. Improvisation plays a central role, with sections designed to exist fully in the moment, making each performance unique.

He has performed across the U.S. and Europe and has shared the stage with artists such as Mike Stern, Justin Faulkner, and Luis Perdomo. Angelo recently recorded his debut album and continues to work as a professional musician while developing new music and touring projects.

PROGRAM

In celebration of Women’s History Month, the program honors the diverse voices and stories of women worldwide. Giorgia will present a curated selection of songs interpreted by women and dedicated to the female experience, with specific titles to be announced from the stage.

The performance weaves through a rich tapestry of global sounds and eras, paying tribute to the raw emotion of Edith Piaf and the virtuosic swing of Ella Fitzgerald. The repertoire also explores the sophisticated intersection of women and love through the timeless compositions of the great Billy Strayhorn, alongside the vibrant, rhythmic textures of Brazil and the soulful elegance of Italian melodies. 

Through these varied perspectives, the program celebrates the enduring power of the female voice and the universal themes that connect us all.
